Nope. Check the hose between the tank and the lines on the body. They rot out after time and are a high point in the system so you won't notice a leak.

Probable rusty mud in the tank and/or the tank to body line is cracked and sucking air.

If I had to chose between one or the other, I would guess both.

Are you sure you have gas in the tank?

Yes. Put gas in it.

Might replace tank and lines.

I asked cause you didn't mention that you could smell gas so I don't think it's a leak. It could be the pick up tube is rotten

Is there a sending unit in the tank or is that the same as a fuel pump??

The sending unit usually has a pipe that goes down near the bottom of the tank and has a strainer/filter on the end.

f you have ethanol in your gas, the filter is likely swimming in rust.

Drop your tank to check the body to tank lines. On the FI G-bodies the tank to body lines were lucky to last 10 years. Mine was spraying gas right at 10 years.
